Happy Mother’s Day Mama’s! I hope you all had the best Mother’s Day! I hope you celebrated exactly how you wanted to on your special day.

Thinking about a theme that sums up this week and I can only think of cute and cozy style along with getting all around summer ready. Cozy summer outfits that were ahhhmazing prices, an amazing summer cocktail, all the swim essentials and getting your summer bod ready with an at home workout that only takes 24 minutes max!

I was never really a romper fan for two reasons, they always fit me a little funny because I have a longer torso and the whole bathroom thing – awkward!

But, the romper trend is here and BIG, so I was on the hunt to find to one and I found a winner with this one! It’s so good and forgiving, so its great for normal, short and long torsos! And, it has pockets! That’s a win!

This romper will be perfect for your hot summers. It’s lightweight and the fabric is so soft!

And, how cute is this bralette? It’s so cute and it’s perfect paired with this romper!

Heritage Distilling has a ton a great cocktail recipes on their website and I found one that is sooo good! It tastes like a refreshing dessert.

This is THE perfect summer momiform! These chambray shorts are the most flattering cut! They are soft, cozy and they have pockets! The drawstring works, too! Pair with a cute top and sandals and you are set for the day!

I’ve always been a two-piece girl, because of that longer torso issue I have and it usually makes one-pieces uncomfortable. But, I found a couple really cute one-pieces this year and they work great for longer torsos! This is one of them and it’s under $30! I fell in the love with the rose gold rivets and lace up sides.

It wasn’t planned in the slightest! I started an IGTV channel and it was completely spur of the moment. I had several requests to share what I do for my workouts, so I filmed a quick at home workout that doesn’t need any equipment. It was too long for stories, so just like that, I started IGTV!

I’ll admit, this first video is rough! But, I want to make more and I want to make them better! Stay tuned for more!

My workout style is all Fabletics! Let me tell you that I have been getting monthly outfits from Fabletics for several months and I am SO impressed! The quality and fit are spot on and I have been choosing to wear my Fabletics over all my other workout pieces! And, the prices are too amazing to pass up!

Happy May! I can’t believe it’s May already! Last week was such a busy one for us with my son’s birthday and my hubby’s birthday! Lot’s of celebrations!

This was a full week of posts! Lots of discount codes and favorite everyday look. Look below to see my favorite white distressed denim, cami and wedges all in one post!

They are so soft, can fit any smart watch and completely customizable. I also love that it’s owned and run by the sweetest Mom ever. I love women supporting women!

These are THE BEST distressed white jeans! I love them because they don’t show a lot of skin. The larger holes are lined with lace! And, they come in short, reg and tall lengths. And, this is THE BEST cami ever, too! It comes in so many colors and worth every penny. I have it in three colors and I need more! Finally, these are THE BEST wedges ever! They go with everything beautifully!

I love this time of year, because I get to bring out one of my favorite bags for the season! My limited edition Louis Vuitton Neverfull MM Ramages! I bought it a couple of years ago and I just love it so much! Clearly these are all sold out, but I found a resell one for you!

A Review of the Vitamin C Collection + the TORCHĒ V2+

My age hit a another mini-milestone and I am half-way to another decade! Yes, at 45 I am really starting to see the signs of aging! I am always looking for products and tools that can help slow the physical signs of again down, because I still think I am 30! I really do! I always forget that I am well into my 40’s!

When Vine Vera reached out to me, I was more than thrilled to try out Vine Vera’s Vitamin C Collection & TORCHĒ V2+! I love skincare and wine, so this seems like a match made in heaven! I have been using these products for about a month now and I ready to share my results with you!

About Vine Vera

Vine Vera is a luxury skin care line where their products revolve around resveratrol. Resveratrol is a powerful antioxidant found in the skin of red grapes. It is thought to cleanse your body of impurities and helps in preventing the appearance of aging signs such as fine lines and wrinkles. When applied topically, your skin can soak up all the beautifying benefits of this wondrous ingredient, leaving your skin feeling radiantly smooth and younger looking.

The Vitamin C Collection

This collection consists of these products:

These are all included in the Vine Vera Vitamin C Collection, but you can purchase each item individually, so I will go over each one so you can see if you need it in your skincare regimen. For each product, I will first tell you the products purpose and claims followed by my personal review and thoughts.

This product has a wonderful smell and feels amazing. I enjoy using morning and night. It leaves my skin feeling perfectly clean and not too oily or too dry. I am truly enjoying this cleanser!

Resveratrol Vitamin C Peeling

Use the Resveratrol Vitamin C Peeling as part of your daily skincare routine to remove traces of makeup, dirt and oil, and reveal a beautiful appearance. Blended with Resveratrol Ferment extract, vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) and Vitamin A (Retinyl Palmitate) derivatives, your skin is left feeling refreshed and clean.

This product is one-of-a-kind amazing! I have never used anything like it! It is gel-like constancy that you apply to a clean face in gentle circular motions and it exfoliates your skin beautifully! My face feels so clean and fresh after using this peel!

I love the smell and feel of this serum! I use this at night and my skin feels so soft, hydrated and smooth in the morning. I would recommend using this sparing if you have normal to oily skin like mine.

TORCHĒ V2+

Now lets talk about about the TORCHĒ V2+ by Jelessi! I was extremely excited about this device as it’s supposed to really help with signs of aging!

Restore radiance to your complexion with the Torchē V2+ by Jelessi. This powerful treatment delivers red LED infrared technology to help target fine lines, wrinkles and maturing areas of your face and neck. Experience a renewed youthfulness in both the look and feel of your skin, as it begins to exude a visibly smoother, stronger and age-defying appearance.

To achieve optimal results, use 3 times per week for three consecutive weeks. After three weeks of usage, continue to use once per week for maintenance.

This device is FDA Cleared, dermatologist approved, and patent pending. It also comes with a lifetime warranty.

Red LED light is known for speeding up collagen synthesis and enhancing cellular repair. It was the original therapy utilized by NASA in medical care. Red light energy stimulates the mitochondria (the power generators) in cells so that they function optimally, boosting the production of collagen and elastin and in turn slowing the signs of premature aging and environmental damage.

I used this as directed and I loved the way skin felt after each use. I do feel that it is getting firmer and I look forward to seeing the continued and improving results. Keep in mind that this device takes time to use and you need to use it consistently for the best results. It takes about 24 minutes total each treatment, but I feel it’s worth it for all the benefits.

My final thoughts

I have truly enjoyed using this entire line of products. The packaging is beautiful, I love the ease of use, and the smell is divine – think of the ripest and juiciest oranges! My skin feels absolutely amazing!

I enjoy using the TORCHĒ V2+ and I really feel like it’s making a difference in my skin. It’s easy to use and my skin feels amazing after using it.

I love the Resveratrol Vitamin C Peeling and the Torchē V2+ most out of this collection. Both provide amazing results. Vine Vera offers many other collections that target specific skin care concern so make sure to check those here!
